server crashes or the head office server crashes or the internet
goes down. Thanks to Espresso's
multi site technologies
retail operation never experience any down time.
Financial Integration - In Real
Time
It is not uncommon to hear that some POS solutions have weak integration
with financial accounting software. In Espresso this issue is
completely eliminated because the POS system and the back end system
are one in the same application (differentiated only by settings).
Espresso's enterprise wide financial integration provides many
benefits:
- High speed posting of sales to branch and head office system
- Queuing when internet is off-line
- Zero data loss between POS and back office - using MS SQL
server transaction processing
- Zero compatibility issues between POS and Accounting system
- Zero upfront / on-going integration costs between 3rd Party
systems
- Common user interface - head office view of transactions is
same as POS
- Ability to provide ERP / accounting system for the branch -
(eg franchisees)
Easy Integration to Other
Accounting Systems
Because Espresso is an accounting system, exporting data to other
accounting systems is simple and very flexible. With
Espresso's data held in standard SQL server databases, integration
can be performed at any level from raw sales to GL postings.
Espresso's multi-site technologies can be used to manage transfer of
data between sites (even non espresso data) and provide real-time
integration to 3rd party
systems. Espresso comes with built-in import / export
templates for some accounting systems, and creating new templates is
not difficult.
Company Wide Data Access
Espresso's multi-site technologies enable sharing of company wide
data such as stock balances across all locations, centralised
customers loyalty database and gift registries. Using
Espresso's multi site technologies these records can be made
available via remote access to head office or they can be cached and
updated in real time at every branch.
Company wide access to data enables:
- Live global stock enquiry - see what stock is available at
all other locations - in real time
- Centralised customer lookup - share customers / loyalty
programs across the enterprise
- Gift Registry - synchronised across all stores and the
website
Retail Technology
With integration to all retail technologies available (including
Bar-code readers, docket printers, pole displays, cash drawers,

POS solution that makes best use of today's retail technology.
Video Surveillance Integration
Espresso comes with an integration to the Geovision video
surveillance system, that enables POS activities to be superimposed

manager to see transactional information as it relates to cashier
staff interactions with customers and the cash till.
